My monitoring of the UK Guardian comes to the painful conclusion that Labour will win with a decisive majority. Here is the excellent coverage by Andrew Sparrow. I’d like to read the post-mortems before I draw conclusions but I can say: This was not done in ignorance. Elections matter. We’ll see what happens after this. […]

UKIP came in third in the popular vote among the political parties but only won one seat in parliament in the 2015 General Election last May. (It’s the reason the party has decided to go to a proportional representation system advocacy but that really is not in the best interest of the libertarian euroskeptic party […]

It is a very big development: The Chair of the Bow Group, a conservative think tank, Benjamin Harris-Quinney, called for conservative voters in districts where the Tories are behind UKIP to Labour to vote for the libertarian, anti-EU party to stop Labour. But he said “few in the Conservative Party will acknowledge the reality that […]

The death of a Labour MP in north west England might be (or might not be) a second UKIP win in a by-election and to prevent that, Labour wants to have the by-election on the same day as the expected UKIP win in Clacton – October 9. But might it backfire? First, here’s the story. […]
